Title:
METHOD OF MAKING FLUORINE GROUP-CONTAINING AROMATIC COMPOUNDS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/167756
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The invention pertains to a method of making an aromatic compound comprising a fluorine-containing group, the method comprising the following steps: Step (1): providing an aromatic compound comprising at least one aromatic ring comprising sp2-hybridized carbon atoms [compound (Ar)], and a nitrile compound comprising at least one nitrile group (-CN) bound to a fluorine-containing group (group Rf) [nitrile (F)]; Step (2): reacting the nitrile (F) with compound (Ar) under electrophilic substitution conditions followed by hydrolytic conditions so as to generate a ketone derivative comprising a group -C(O)-Rf covalently bound to a sp2-hybridized carbon atom of an aromatic ring, wherein Rf has the meaning as indicated above [ketone (Ar)]; and Step (3): reacting ketone (Ar) with a reducing agent effective in reducing carbonyl group -C(O)-, so as to obtain an aromatic compound comprising a group -CH2-Rf covalently bound to a sp2-hybridized carbon atom of an aromatic ring.
